    Hi Kenny, I am excited about your standard and how I can help spread the news about the global effort to raise the bar for sustainable agriculture. I am Chairman of the Stimson Center’s Alliance for a Climate Resilient Earth, compose of over 100 major companies, a dozen universities, a half dozen national laboratories, and the environmental umbrella organization, IUCN. Our mission is to supercharge the mission of our members (free) as it affects climate resilience. Given the linkages between the health of the soil, water usage, distribution impacts, animal welfare and human health, I realize the potential of a standard. I’m also working with the American Society of Civil Engineers who are advancing a climate resilient, sustainable infrastructure standard that will have global application. I would like to discuss this at your convenience.
